"I said, Yebai, you burned it. What if we need it in the future—" Xiao Shuju was utterly distressed, looking down at the painting now down to its fra.
"It’s fine, it’s already burned." Dabai maintained his indifferent tone.
"How can you just say burn and burn—" Xiao Shuju stamped her foot in frustration.
At this mont, Gu Nuan had no choice but to offer so comfort to the third sister, saying: "Third sister, you might not know, Yebai can paint."
Huh?
The two little monkeys stared with wide eyes, extrely skeptical about their mom’s words: their dad Dabai can paint, how co they didn’t know?
"He can paint?" Xiao Shuju indeed turned around with the sa doubtful look.
Dabai grinned, clearly indicating he wouldn’t tell them he could paint.
The third sibling of the Xiao Family obviously couldn’t wrap her head around it; what use is Yebai being able to paint?
Gu Jinrong and Dabai clearly weren’t willing to say more.
"Did you co to just to burn this painting?" Dabai continued to ask the third sibling.
Xiao Shuju looked utterly defeated, not knowing whether to say more, just knowing her brother’s crazy.
"My painting isn’t with anymore. My fourth sister and I discussed for ages, thinking maybe the second sister’s painting is now overseas being auctioned." Eventually, the third sibling disclosed the secret.
This was certainly the crux.
Xiao Yebai imdiately got up to call soone, first contacting dostically to see if Kang Yueting had reached out to anyone else.
At this ti, Xiao Shuzhu sent soone to invite Xiao Yebai and Gu Nuan over.
The couple went to Zhu Minxuan’s. After Ou Yanan’s preliminary check-up, Zhu Minxuan’s post-surgery condition seed stable, but he couldn’t talk for too long.
Xiao Yebai’s impression of this fourth brother-in-law was minimal and not great. Mainly because Dabai had little contact with family relatives.
Yet, Zhu Minxuan’s eyes were fixed on his face, saying: "You look a lot like—"
Many people said he resembled his mother Ruan Ruzhen more than his bunch of sisters. Dabai, indifferent, replied: "Is there a problem?"
"Don’t you want to ask what’s going on?" Zhu Minxuan struggled to catch his breath.
Dabai said: "My wife ntioned, last ti in Luxembourg, when Rogers was around, the fourth sister hadn’t contacted him afterward. So, you have a connection with Rogers, and naturally with those people. As for why you’re targeting the Xiao Family, that’s a question for you. But, I think my fourth sister shouldn’t be curious anymore."
Zhu Minxuan turned his head, seeing Xiao Shuzhu’s face.
Xiao Shuzhu nodded to him saying: "You targeting the Xiao Family, I don’t see it. At least, when my second sister and third sister’s families attacked the Xiao Family, you didn’t join them. I thought maybe you deliberately drew them close to you, trying to find out their inside stories. In fact, you’ve been wholeheartedly for ."
Whatever Zhu Minxuan was thinking, nobody knew. But everyone present had to admire Zhu Minxuan for marrying such an astute wife after hearing Xiao Shuzhu’s words.
A speechless Zhu Minxuan only blinked his eyelashes, anyone could see the excitent in his heart at this mont.
Worried about his heart condition, Xiao Shuzhu firmly grasped his hand, nodding to him: "You don’t need to say anything, I understand it all."
